Yayy!!! 50 days until christmas.
Last year was first time, I have set up the tree with store-bought ornaments/decorations. We had friends over for dinner for almost all through December. Since it was our first time, we were too excited and had multiple photo sessions 😉
Here is a picture of us – Christmas 2013 🙂

This year, I definitely need more ornaments for my 6 FT Faux Christmas tree 🙂
I came across some really fancy ornaments and holiday decorations, sadly they cost a pretty penny.
So, this year it is going to be D.I.Y ornaments and I am super excited to start my series with some amazing projects.
Well, in my first series it is going to be a kids chirstmas Ornament craft.
Pipe cleaner/Chennile Stem Ornaments

I loveee them 🙂
So all you need is a scale and some white and red stems from dollar store/walmart.
Star
Measure the stems ( mine are 30 cms). Divide the stem to 5 equal parts ( 6 cm each side) and form 3 v’s and join the ends.
Snowflake
Measure the white stem and cut 6 equal parts(10 cms each – total 2 stems). Bind 2 together which makes 3 stems. Now form “V” shape at each end and join together with a white piece of stem.

Candy Cane
Take each of white and red stem and twist. Bend it into half and further twist and shape it. You can add a bow too with green stem.
And, you now have the pretty ornaments ready to decorate it any way you choose 🙂

See you in my next series 🙂

Hi, I am very delighted that you stopped by! Welcome to Creative ME!!! I 'm a wife to an amazing hubby and recently mother to an adorable little munchkin :-), an Asian(Indian) native, nomad for a while and now currently @Portland, Oregan. Recently relocated from The Grand Canyon State and still adjusting to the gloomy weather here...
When we first we moved to US(2012) ,our first 2 months of accommodation was in a hotel and that's when everything started.
You must be wondering HOW?
I was introduced to HGTV and started reading craft blogs.
Ohh yes, PINTERST toooo and that is my fav!
Well, inspired from these places, I started to DIY on budget and decorate our home. Whenever I posted pics of my projects on Facebook, everyone loved and gave many positive comments. Some of them also said I should not look for a job, instead start a blog or sell some of my projects ;) They thought I was doing something very cool!! That was a great motivation and I decided to tickle my creative senses to tame the stress monster ;-)
And then, one day here is my blog , where I share my ideas and projects with friends, family and all other aspiring DIY-er's :)
And if you like my blog, please come back and also don't forget to tell your friends :)
Lastly, if you have a fun and functional craft or project or even a simple recipe I want to hear….please let me know and I can feature, down the line we will make Creative ME to WE..;)
